I know you can make a piñata with a balloon and that stuff but how do you sculpt this, I love doing paper mâché and have been wanting to do it more but I don't need anymore piñatas and these would be perfect. Please help.

yeah sure... it's simple.. first of all you need to make a base or the inner part of the paper sculpture, it could be made using some plaster boards and card boards or anything that could give a support to the sculpture.Then you must stick the newspapers to it, using sticky tape.paste the paper mache!and you made your sculpture!
